Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The overall purpose of this research is to examine and compare the effectiveness and costs of a community-based intervention to support self-management with usual primary care for older adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and multiple chronic conditions and their family caregivers. Once the study is complete, the investigators will be able to determine if there is any measurable difference in self-care management between usual care plus the intervention versus usual care alone.

Type 2 diabetes is associated with hepatic insulin resistance. One consequence of insulin resistance of the liver is an altered hepatic glucose metabolism. This study investigates whether the whole body (M-value) and hepatic insulin sensitivity obtained by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp is influenced by a preceding intravenous glucose tolerance test (Botnia Clamp) in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety of LY2409021 in healthy participants and participants with diabetes. The study drug is given as single oral doses. Each participant can receive up to 3 doses, with a minimum 7 day washout between dosing periods. Side effects will be documented. This study is approximately 9 weeks long, not including screening. Screening is required within 6 weeks prior to the start of the study.

This is a study in Japanese healthy volunteers to determine the safety and tolerability of the compound AZD7687. It will also assess how the body handles the drug and how it responds to the drug following single dose followed by multiple dosing over 7 days.

A study to investigate if the pharmacokinetics of ASP1941 is different in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients with different grades of renal failure compared with T2DM patients with normal renal function and healthy volunteers.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of single oral doses of PF-05175157 in healthy volunteers.

Rural Diabetes Online Care (RDOC) will develop an Internet-based intervention for rural primary care physicians, focusing on improving care for adult patients with diabetes. The intervention, drawing upon the principles of quality improvement and providing tools for system-based changes in practice, is designed for the rural practice, where resources are constrained.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the benefit and cost of including health coaches, clinical pharmacists and mobile health (mHealth) tools such as text messaging and videoconferencing in diabetes management support services for African-Americans and Latinos with uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes.

Aim: To investigate the effects of metformin treatment on thyroid hormone metabolism in euthyroid patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Polyphenols belong to the largest group of secondary metabolites produced by plants, mainly, in response to biotic or abiotic stresses such as infections, wounding, UV irradiation, exposure to ozone, pollutants, and other hostile environmental conditions. It is thought that the molecular basis for the protective action of polyphenols in plants is their antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties. These numerous phenolic compounds are major biologically active components of spices, aromas, essential oils, and traditional medicines. In order to investigate the impact of spice polyphenols on postprandial flow-mediated dilation, nitric oxide, glucose, insulin, triglycerieds, oxidized LDL, and cytoxic lipid peroxidation products (MDA) levels in men with type 2 diabetes, the investigators propose to achieve the following specific aims using a randomized crossover study design: To determine the effect of a ground beef patty meal with and without polyphenol-rich spices on postprandial levels of plasma oxidized LDL, triglycerides, insulin, glucose, and malondialdehyde (MDA). To determine the effect of a ground beef patty meal with and without polyphenol-rich spices on postprandial levels of nitric oxide and flow-mediated dilation. To determine the effect of a ground beef patty meal with and without a spice blend on MDA accumulation in urine. This study will determine whether spice polyphenols exert a beneficial effect by inhibition of the absorption of lipotoxin MDA in males with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Men with diabetes mellitus type 2 have been selected for this study to enable assessment of markers of vascular health including nitric oxide in plasma and flow-mediated dilation. These findings may help to explain the potentially harmful effects of oxidizable fats found in foods and the important benefit of dietary polyphenols in ameliorating this potentially harmful effect.
